Overview

Internal combustion engines still have a potential for substantial improvements, particularly with regard to fuel efficiency and environmental compatibility. These goals can be achieved with help of control systems. Modeling and Control of Internal Combustion Engines (ICE) addresses these issues by offering an introduction to cost-effective model-based control system design for ICE. The primary emphasis is put on the ICE and its auxiliary devices. Mathematical models for these processes are developed in the text and selected feedforward and feedback control problems are discussed. The appendix contains a summary of the most important controller analysis and design methods, and a case study that analyzes a simplified idle-speed control problem. The book is written for students interested in the design of classical and novel ICE control systems.

From the reviews: ""The topic of this book is modeling and control of internal combustion engines for automotive applications. ! In summary, this book is an essential text for anyone interested in engine control design. It seems appropriate for a graduate-level course in particular, for students with some control background. According to the authors, the book is intended for students ! . I would also like to add that engine control practitioners can also learn a lot from this book ! .""
